I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty
Interview
First of all, the recruiter was very rude and very late to schedule out interviews. I went through 5 weeks worth of interviews, and she would wait at least a week to schedule any out. If I had an issue and needed to reschedule since she waited so long, she had an attitude.
They make you do 5 interviews before the finale-which may or may not be the offer. They are super robotic and use the STAR method for every interview. I understand a few questions using the method is a great idea, but having 5 interviews of the same STAR method questions over and over is absurd and a waste of everyone’s time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Example of a time you made a mistake and what you did to fix it.
We did group interviews in a circle in front of all the other candidates (everyone asked same question then everyone would answer one at a time), then split up into smaller groups for more interviews— can’t remember if we did any individual interviewing
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe how you’ve handled a difficult customer/interaction.
Super easy! Just asked what you know about beauty, when your availability is, etc. Doesn't ask very hard typical interview questions. Prob took about seven minutes at most. You don't need to be that experienced for the job.
